You guys able to see any tracking information yet with your tracking numbers? Both mine have UPS numbers but they're not active yet in the UPS system.

 

Think they'll get here tomorrow??? Going to take off work for new phone day!! (and finish up some landscaping work)

My labels just went live. Scheduled delivery on 4/19 for both! 

Same here too! 

 

Does anyone know if I can activate a phone on another line without first getting it activated it on the line I got it under?

I saw a possible issue when I went to activate the phone. 10GB tethering option was not there and HD streaming was unchecked. I talked to chat to make sure it stays. Not sure what will happen to the 10 GB tethering if you don't call. I just saw HD streaming unchecked and thought I would call about it. I was not given an answer they did the activation and it is still in my plan for now.

Fast chargers work through the micro to C adapters with any QC2.0 charger wall wart! (and with USB to C cords)

 

But, my choetech fast charging pads don't work. I've reached out to the company to hopefully get a resolution but I'm mega disappointed. I've got 6 of those littered throughout my life.

 

However, my Seneo fast wireless charger does work!

 

Edit: My QC2.0 car Chargers do NOT fast charge either. Womp, Womp. Mixed bag here, frustrating indeed.

I had zero issues getting mines activated online.

 

i just ordered this phone so I haven't received it yet but from my experience with first my HTC One M8 and then my Nexus 6, online activation has never been a problem.

So working through the phone and all it's quirks. I've found that the face unlock (you can have them all active and registered meaning face, fingerprint, iris) is the best way around having to use that rear fingerprint sensor.  I know it's not as secure, but day to day usage is going to be the quickest.  It's taking a lot of work to get over not having that front finger print sensor like the Note5.  Otherwise loving the phone.

    • In the conference call they had two question on additional spectrum. One was the 800 spectrum. They are not certain what will happen, thus have not really put it into their plans either way (sale or no sale). The do have a reserve level. It is seen as great for new technologies which I presume is IOT or 5g slices.  They did not bite on use of their c-band or DOD.  mmWave rapidly approaching deadlines not mentioned at all. FWA brushes on this as it deals with underutilized spectrum on a sector by sector basis.  They are willing to take more money to allow FWA to be mobile (think RV or camping). Unsure if this represents a higher priority, for example, RVs in Walmart parking lots where mobile needs all the capacity. In terms of FWA capacity, their offload strategy is fiber through joint ventures where T-Mobile does the marketing, sales, and customer support while the fiber company does the network planning and installation.  50%-50% financial split not being consolidated into their books. I think discussion of other spectrum would have diluted the fiber joint venture discussion. They do have a fund which one use is to purchase new spectrum. Sale of the 800Mhz would go into this. It should be noted that they continue to buy 2.5Ghz spectrum from schools etc to replace leases. They will have a conference this fall to update their overall strategies.  
    • The manual network selection sounds like it isn't always scanning NR, hence Dish not showing up. Your easiest way to force Dish is going to be forcing the phone into NR-only mode (*#*#4636#*#* menu?), since rainbow sims don't support SA on T-Mobile.
    • "The company’s unique multi-layer approach to 5G, with dedicated standalone 5G deployed nationwide across 600MHz, 1.9GHz, and 2.5GHz delivers customers a consistently strong experience, with 85% of 5G traffic on sites with all three spectrum bands deployed." Meanwhile they are very close to a construction deadline in June for 850Mhz of mmWave in most of Ohio iirc. No reported sightings.

They're completely avoiding talking about mmWave.
    • Was true in my market. Likely means a higher percentage of 5g phones in your market.
